Jones may give it a go

Verdell Jones, out since suffering a concussion against Cornell, may return to the lineup today. He is currently on the floor taking shots, which is more than he’s done before recent games. He’s slowly returned to practice, first working only in non-contact and then moving up to more vigorous drills.

If Jones can play he’ll give the Hoosiers a player who can matchup with freshman point guard DeAndre Liggings (who is 6-6). Those two are probably familiar with each other having both grown up playing basketball in Illinois. Remember that Jones often traveled to Liggins’ home town of Chicago to face stronger competition.
